Normally at this point of the year, people my age are praying for snow every night and groaning every morning because we have another college day, but nevertheless, this year we've experienced a scandinavian winter because of something to do with the North Atlantic Jet Stream (I have no idea if I'm honest), making for some nice winter outfit photos and six day long weekend.

DIY// Denim Dip-Dye Shirt

You'll need:
- Shirt
- Bucket
- Bleach (preferably thin but thick will work too)
- Coat Hanger

Nº1

Dilute bleach with water 1 part thick bleach to 4 parts water and add more bleach if it isn't working. It's best to start low and build up incase your shirt is delicate although I ended up using pure thin bleach in a second attempt because the thick bleach had no effect.

Nº2

Go get something to eat (probably best to wash your hands first if you don't use gloves like me). Some people say theirs only took 20 minutes to bleach to white but I ended up having to leave mine over night in pure bleach so this bit is a bit of a guessing game.

Nº3

Rinse by hand and then wash thoroughly on its own in the machine and then dry.

Tips:

- If you haven't got a wide bucket it might be easier to put an elastic band just above where you want to bleach to to help you get it all in quickly. Don't bleach past the band or you'll get a tie-dye effect.

STYLE: Alexander McQueen Fire-Print Shirt

Now I can't be sure on what to think about this shirt, on the one hand I'm tempted to worship everything that falls out of the widely revered fashion house that is McQueen but on the other, I am looking at a fire-print shirt, thinking why? To me it just seems to be a throw back to the early 2000s which is a fashion period I'm sure most of us would rather forget.

 It isn't that it's a badly made fire-print shirt, don't get me wrong, if I had to wear fire-print shirt this would be my first choice, but then would I pay £630 for an Alexander McQueen cubic zirconia ring. Hmm maybe...
